Please check them all

Refreshing Channels and EPG

The first thing to always try is the "Refresh" button and select "Update playlist"
You can also update and repair the EPG here by selecting "Update EPG" We update, repair, or add new content most days. Until you select these option you won't see any changes we have made.
TIP- Refresh daily

Does the device have a working internet connection?

If you are seeing "Network error" or "Error Code : on Failure" test the connection by going to the web browser or any internet based app on the device. If you don't check the Ethernet cable is connected or the Wi-Fi is connected. Try resetting the router and device.

Username and Password

The most likely reason it won't let you login is you entered the details incorrectly.
If you see the error "Incorrect Username and Password" then have typed them incorrectly. Please be careful with capital i's and lower case L's, in a lot of fonts they look the same, capital O's and the zero can look slimier, and Upper case and lower case K's.
All test and subs work 100% of the time and the login details have been copied and pasted direct from the server so they are not wrong. Please do not email saying the detail don't work they do.

Subscription Expiry

Has you subscription expired. Please check back in your email for the date you was sent the subscription and how long you paid for. If this was a test it expired 48 hours from when you was emailed it. If it has expired and you wish to continue please purchase a package from this website, or another free test.

Playback Error

If you are seeing "Playback error" then you may have also lost internet.
This can also be that the channel isn't live at present. Live events channels etc. are only active when the event is being aired. It may also be that the channel is down.

The Server is Down

The server has had to be rebooted. Unfortunately this is a computer and occasionally it will need rebooting. Estimated down time 30 mins.
You can check for information on our discord server in the "News and updates" tab on this website, which will keep you updated about any situation or updates you need to do to your device.
